Ok, here is a question that would be interesting for someone to provide an answer to: If Hayflick's limit is true (or even maybe true) for regular cel...
I think I more or less agree with your statement if it is about that the Abrahamic religions provide an unsatisfactory answer as too why we have to di...
The only reason you believe death is inevitable is because all of your life you have seen anything that lives eventually dies. Before the invention of...
One of the things I was hoping somebody would bring up is the fact that ANY AND ALL LIFE (complex or not) REQUIRES a means/process to create a line of...
I will try to read up on this more, but I think the problem with "entropy" isn't an issue that is just something that affects organic systems but it i...
I have heard about both the supposedly immortal cancer cells that continually grow and are used in medical research and about CRISPR. To be honest, I ...
Again like Alkis Piskas's post, this is just an appeal to authority/antiquity. While there may be issues if the human population getting too big, for ...
And a few hundred years ago people where saying that if man was meant to fly God would have given us wings. Both that argument and yours is really jus...
This sounds more or less the old conventional way of thinking when it comes to "life extension" - proper diet, avoiding high risk activities, getting ...
Fermi's Paradox isn't really a "paradox" since there are many, many reasons why we haven't been contacted by E.T.s yet. The first one is that we HAVE ...
To be honest I think I got a little lost in this discussion, although this is what usually happens - it's either that or it goes dead by now. The only...
I will try to look at all of these when I get a chance. If you have more links/sources I'm happy to look into them as well but I will admit it might t...
I guess we don't really know if she and her husband somehow made tons of money on the trip, but then again we really don't know if he trip was just an...
If one is the biggest super power in the world and wishes to remain so, they must be willing to defend themselves (and their allies) against all poten...
If I had more time I would post all the links I found but unfortunately I don't. Below is a link to a discussion that was going on where China was alm...
I agree, however on the other hand by them acting like a child and constantly throwing temper tantrums in a way it kind of helps the US/Taiwan and our...
If you really believe that the US military might stand back while China invades Taiwan because they "recognize" the "One China policy" then I got some...
I think the language used in describing the situation is something like that if China attacks Taiwan, then the US will help Taiwan but not if Taiwan a...
Stop and think for a second, what real "threat" is there for China if Pelosi goes to Taiwan? The real answer is simply there isn't any, other than it ...
Exactly, if China was smart they would just keep quiet about it. The more they threaten and pound their chest without doing anything the more impotent...
It is better for the US and our allies to pay little to no attention to China's threats, so I believe it is better for Pelosi does go to Taiwan. Becau...
If China really wants to attack, they will attack but it is pretty much a given they would be complete fools to do so. Unlike Ukraine, the US has pled...
I don't know if it is still relevant, but the some of the issues in this thread has been discussed in a previous thread I made months ago before even ...
You are partly right, the money in our pockets are merely "IOUs" from the government and they are only worth something if the government and other pow...
I disagree. One of the easiest (if not THE MOST EASIEST) to make money today is to find a way to exploit others. By either making others feel like the...
But what is the rich you are describing are acting like demons? Has anyone ever said we shouldn't demonize people like Hitler, the Nazis, or Putin and...
I agree. I could be wrong but it seemed like during the Cold War, those in power in capitalist countries like the US were a little more careful in how...
Here are a couple videos/links on this subject: Mother Jones - It’s the Inequality, Stupid https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2011/02/income-inequal...
I could be wrong but many of our current problems are not all that new. In a many ways the issue of "class warfare" has been going on since about the ...
No, I have more or less know this for some time. It has only become more painfully obvious for some time. We live in a society that often tries to bra...
How can you be sure that it isn't like organized crime in that there is a active conspiracy among certain wealthy people to undermine those that are e...
Sorry I'm late in replying.. my home computer isn't really working right now so I usually have to go to the look at and reply to forum messages. I jus...
I think i more or less agree. Modern religion is having a hard time trying to prove that any "supernatural" event and/or being isn't anything more tha...
The natural order of things more or less maintains that EVERYTHING that exists has to obey certain laws. If something was able to do things that broke...
To the best of human knowledge (at the present time) "God" ,as he is defined by Abrahamic religions, does not exist. Why this is would require a very ...
I'm sorry I haven't paid attention for awhile (although by now it feels a lot like beating a dead horse) but I just remembered something that I read s...
I think part of the issue is that it is nearly impossible for someone to change their point of view even when they are faced with information that sho...
Yeah, when I read that it kind of made my head spin as well. It looks like NOS4A2 is willing to blame people in the State for being willing and going ...
:up: Laissez faire and Ayn Rand Objectivism are just BS/fantasy world for the uber rich (and the idiots they have brainwashed to think like them) that...
This is just more of the same Ayn Rand type BS you have already been spouting. You think that the State itself decided to allow itself to manipulated ...
:up: I think you are more or less correct in this in that before now we used to have theologians discuss/argue about whatever the nature of the world ...
